Guild Wars 2

The bug is the following:

On an inclined plane if your enemy is down hill and you Savage Leap towards him, you won’t hit him; instead you will leap forward and fall on top of your enemy.

gets really annoying when you use a skill and has no effect on your enemy.

The Ranger Greatsword Weapon Skill #3 (“Swoop”) has the same effect.
Leap skills tend to ignore terrain, sadly.

I’ve always found it quite disappointing that, instead of leaping down the slight hill at an enemy, we instead launch up into the air and freeze in midair 10 feet above the enemy, swing and hit absolutely nothing, and then fall straight down onto the enemy far below us…which sometimes also incurs fall damage.

Every single leap skill has this problem. This has been mentioned several times as a limitation of the engine so it is not likely to get fixed.

Rockdogs using their leap/pounce will have the same problem. So it is not limited to player skills either.

You think it’s bad now? You should have seen it at launch…

Same with the skill 3 of the sword of mesmers, does nothing when there is a terrain variation.
